Political Divide Over U.S. Alliance with Israel in the Israel-Hamas War
Rep. Jake Auchincloss called on President Biden to condemn the left-wing of his party in a speech addressing the rise in antisemitism amid the Israel-Hamas war. Biden faced pressure from the left flank over U.S. alliance with Israel, prompting a vow to withhold weapons if Israel invades Rafah. Some Democrats view Biden's announcement as betrayal while others see it as a turning point in the war. Young voters express frustration with Biden's stance but prioritize preventing a Trump re-election.
